Walking on thin ice, I'm paying the price.
|
I'm throwing the dice in the air.
|
Why must we learn it the hard way
|
And play the game of life with our hearts?
|
I gave you my life, you gave me your life.
|
Like a gush of wind in my hair.
|
Why do we forget what's been said
|
And play the game of life with our hearts?
|
|
I may cry someday. A kiss will dry whichever way.
|
And when my heart returns to ashes, it will be just a story.
|
It will be just a story.
|
|
And you go and try to walk across the lake
|
Crossed it with winter and all of this is ice
|
A terrible thing to do. They say the lake is as thick as the ocean.
|
I wonder if she knew?
